Fix a healthy meal for all and eat a sane portion of it for myself.

Low-calorie pudding or yogurt?

Never had Reineer (probably missing out), but I love Bing cherries!

3 meals a day, or the less traditional several small meals?

Treadmill. I want to be a long-distance runner.

Exercise in AM or PM?

AM . . . I'm definitely a morning person.

Do you tell your "real world friends" your real weight or not?

Yup, if they ask ... or peek over my shoulder while I'm on the scale at work.

Would you rather just tell them how much you've lost?

Would you describe yourself as "scale phobic" or "scale fanatic"

I have never owned my own scale until about 6 months ago (I mean as an adult - my family did have one when I was growing up). So I'll say I'm a scale newbie. I now weigh every Friday, and it's become routine. I don't think of weighing any other time.

If you had to pick one type of clothes to wear every day what would it be (for example, warm ups, jeans, shorts and tee, dress casual, professional, etc.)

oops... it's kinda late. I just realized the thread I'm on is not just the question thread, so let me change that to a diet related question.

Portion control: Do you use measuring cups? A scale? Or do you guesstimate your portions?

When I started counting calories, everything was measured in measuring cups. Now that I have a better sense of amounts, I guestimate on many thoings (but anything really high in calories - e.g. nuts, peanut butter, etc. - I still measure)

Ok, how about measuring success - inches or pounds

Inches (measured via clothes, not with a tape measure).

Exercise: outdoors or indoors?
